Perfume information

Description of the composition

The scent of Wave for Him unfolds as a living composition, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The signature of Hollister is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de toilette sets the depth and body this composition needs.

At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Green, Fruit, Citrus and Wood. The framework further includes Floral, Spicy and Musk. At family level the scent maps to Fern.

In the first seconds you catch grassy-green top notes: Bamboo Leaf, Blackcurrant and Pink Grapefruit.

At the core of development you meet Cypress, Lavender and Neroli holding a structural woody direction.

The accord architecture is driven by these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Gourmet and Floral forming a compact and readable structure. Background accords such as Fruit, Musc and Wood add depth to the backdrop. The stylistic positioning is masculine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.

In summary Wave for Him reads as a cohesive composition — the start forms character, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best experienced through real development.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
Very high (more than 12 hours)
5
Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.
Sillage
Very conspicuous
5
Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

The scent is truly interesting, green-berry, yet it exudes masculinity and confidence. The berries have a greenish tint and a noticeable tartness. It's fresh, with a slight resinous bitterness that adds character. I can't say which season it's more suitable for, as it's versatile and will be appropriate any time of year 🌿
